Edmonton opened the scoring at the 3:36 mark of the first period when Stephen Zipp’s shot beat Canada
goaltender Shannon Szabados (Edmonton, Alta.). But Canada would score three unanswered goals, with
Wickenheiser starting the scoring with a breakaway goal, and Hefford and Poulin also getting in on the act.
Those three goals were scored in less than three minutes. Edmonton would add its second goal and trail by one
heading into the second period.

Johnston, Vaillancourt and Wickenheiser, with her second, added goals in the middle frame and Canada led
6-3 heading into the final 20 minutes.

Kingsbury and Bonhomme finished the scoring for Canada.

The win improves Canada’s record against Midget AAA boys teams to 18-7 this season. Canada’s National
Women’s Team heads back to Calgary before embarking on its second swing through northern Alberta in as many
weeks on Tuesday. Canada will face Fort Saskatchewan, Lloydminster and Edmonton Maple Leafs of the Alberta
Midget Hockey League between January 18 and 22.
